.TH bg_test 6 "8 April 1998" "Svgalib 1.3.0" "Svgalib User Manual"
|
||
|
.SH NAME
|
||
|
bg_test \- test the background mode of svgalib
|
||
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
||
|
.BI "bg_test [" linear ]
|
||
|
|
||
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
Tests the enhanced support of recent svgalibs to draw while
|
||
|
switched to the background. Draws a small centered white box
|
||
|
then waits until you switch to another vc. Draws some outer
|
||
|
box frame around it
|
||
|
.B while
|
||
|
background, which you can see
|
||
|
when you switch back to it. For obvious reasons, your version
|
||
|
of svgalib must have
|
||
|
.B BACKGROUND
|
||
|
support enabled (which is the
|
||
|
default as of this writing).
|
||
|
When finished, press any key to end
|
||
|
.BR bg_test .
|
||
|
|
||
|
The demo uses a
|
||
|
.B G320x200x256
|
||
|
mode or the one you set with
|
||
|
.BR SVGALIB_DEFAULT_MODE .
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you specify the
|
||
|
.I linear
|
||
|
parameter the demo will use
|
||
|
.BR vgagl (7)
|
||
|
and
|
||
|
.BR vga_setlinearaddressing (3)
|
||
|
to test linear mode in background.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This demo is part of svgalib and can be found in the
|
||
|
.I demos/
|
||
|
subdirectory of the original svgalib distribution. However, it is not installed in the system
|
||
|
by default, s.t. it is unclear where you can find it if your svgalib was installed by some
|
||
|
linux distribution. Even then, when you have the demo on your system, you probably won't have
|
||
|
the sources s.t. it is only of limited use for you.
|
||
|
|
||
|
In case of any such problem, simply get an svgalib distribution from the net. You even
|
||
|
don't need to install it. Just
|
||
|
.B make
|
||
|
in the
|
||
|
.I demos/
|
||
|
subdirecty. As of this writing,
|
||
|
.I svgalib-1.2.12.tar.gz
|
||
|
is the latest version and can be retrieved by ftp from
|
||
|
.IR "sunsite.unc.edu" " at " "/pub/Linux/libs/graphics"
|
||
|
and
|
||
|
.IR "tsx-11.mit.edu" " at " "/pub/linux/sources/libs"
|
||
|
which will most probably be mirrored by a site close to you.
